THE BULLETIN of the Rubber Growers Association (Incorporated)
Vol. 14. FEBRUARY, 1932. No. 2.
A meeting of the Council was held on the 1st February, 1932, the
following being the important business transacted :—
Membership of Council. (Vide January BULLETIN, page 1.)
Mr. W. E. Murphy was elected a member of Council to fill the
remaining casual vacancy.
Warehouse Charges. (Vide January BULLETIN, pages 28/29.)
The Report of the Sub-Committee was submitted and noted,
and a vote of thanks to the Sub-Committee for their endeavours was
passed.
Packing of Rubber.
Arising out of the suggestion received from a Member of the
Association as to alternative methods of packing of rubber, endeavours
have been made to secure particulars in regard to such methods.
From particulars received from one quarter, it appears that quite apart
from the difficulties that might be experienced in marketing of rubber
in such packages, the condition of the containers on arrival leaves
much to be desired. It was reported to the Council that an enquiry
was addressed to the Rubber Manufacturers' Association, New York,
and that the matter will be placed before the Crude Rubber Committee
with a view to an investigation of the possibilities being undertaken.
It was further reported that the Rubber Research Institute of
Malaya had asked the London Advisory Committee to institute an
enquiry among all leading manufacturers in Great Britain, on the
Continent of Europe and in the United States of America, inviting
their opinion on the subject of packing of rubber, particularly baling.
